They believe a customer had wanted to pay S$7.50, but keyed in the wrong amount.

Lucky Plaza stall trying to refund payment

Speaking to 8world News, stall owner Huang Guosheng (name transliterated from Mandarin) said the payment was made between 10.45am and 11.15am on Monday (11 Dec).

They made the post on Facebook in an attempt to track down the customer.

He also contacted NETS to try to process the refund directly through them, but was reportedly told that they don’t track customers nor process refunds.

Unclaimed refund will be donated to charity

If the customer doesn’t contact them after one week, they will adopt their “standard practice”, Mr Huang said.

 

That is, they’ll donate the amount to charity.

If you’re the customer or think you may know who they are, do contact Victor via the number stated in the Facebook post for a refund.

Kudos to Wang Fu Roasted for their honesty, and we hope the customer eventually gets his refund.
